Well tomorrow is the official start for this year's E3, so there will be press conferences today, beginning with Microsoft's at noon Eastern time. These pressers tend to offer the revelations from the show before it actually begins, but the trend for years has been to pre-announce news and pre-release E3 media before this point anyway, to avoid being lost in the shuffle, but we'll soon learn just how many surprises, if any, the show will hold.

I was recently flying back to the east coast from CA, and they bumped me up to the emergency exit aisle, at no cost. I'm used to them charging for these seats now (ridiculous), but I was shocked when I got to my seat and found that there wasn't any extra legroom. On top of that, the seats in the emergency exit aisle didn't recline.

Needless to say, those people around me who had PAID for the privilege of sitting in a seat with no advantages (a few disadvantages, in fact) were less than pleased.
